Composition/information on ingredients CAS Number Content (W/W) Chemical name % D-alpha-methylbenzylamine 3. Hazard identification Emergency overview DANGER: COMBUSTIBLE. CORROSIVE LIQUID. Corrosive to the skin, eyes and respiratory system. MAY BE HARMFUL IF SWALLOWED. HARMFUL IN CONTACT WITH SKIN. INGESTION MAY CAUSE GASTRIC DISTURBANCES. Avoid inhalation of mists/vapours. Use with local exhaust ventilation. Wear a NIOSH-certified (or equivalent) acid gas/organic vapour respirator. Wear NIOSH-certified chemical goggles. Wear full face shield if splashing hazard exists. Wear chemical resistant protective gloves. Wear protective clothing. Eye wash fountains and safety showers must be easily accessible. Potential health effects Primary routes of exposure Routes of entry for solids and liquids include eye and skin contact, ingestion and inhalation. Routes of entry for gases include inhalation and eye contact. Skin contact may be a route of entry for liquified gases. Irritation: Corrosive to the skin, eyes and respiratory system. Skin contact may result in dermatitis and deep burns. Eye contact may result in burns and permanent injury. Repeated dose toxicity: No known chronic effects. Medical conditions aggravated by overexposure: Data available do not indicate that there are medical conditions that are generally recognized as being aggravated by exposure to this substance/product.

2 Revision date : 2006/01/04 Page: 2/7 See MSDS section 11 - Toxicological information. 4. First-aid measures General advice: Remove contaminated clothing. If inhaled: Remove the affected individual into fresh air and keep the person calm. Assist in breathing if necessary. Immediate medical attention required. If on skin: Wash affected areas with water while removing contaminated clothing. Remove contaminated clothing. Immediate medical attention required. Wash soiled clothing immediately. If in eyes: In case of contact with the eyes, rinse immediately for at least 15 minutes with plenty of water. Immediate medical attention required. If swallowed: Rinse mouth and then drink plenty of water. Do not induce vomiting. Never induce vomiting or give anything by mouth if the victim is unconscious or having convulsions. Immediate medical attention required. 5. Fire-fighting measures Flash point: 71 C (DIN 51758) Autoignition: 355 C (DIN 51794) Suitable extinguishing media: water fog, foam, dry extinguishing media Hazards during fire-fighting: No particular hazards known. Protective equipment for fire-fighting: Firefighters should be equipped with self-contained breathing apparatus and turn-out gear. Further information: Collect contaminated extinguishing water separately, do not allow to reach sewage or effluent systems. NFPA Hazard codes: Health : 3 Fire: 2 Reactivity: 0 Special: 6. Accidental release measures Personal precautions: Wear appropriate respiratory protection. Use personal protective clothing. Ensure adequate ventilation. Environmental precautions: This product is not regulated by RCRA. This product is not regulated by CERCLA ('Superfund').

3 Revision date : 2006/01/04 Page: 3/7 Cleanup: Spills should be contained, solidified, and placed in suitable containers for disposal. 7. Handling and storage Handling General advice: See MSDS section 10 - Stability and reactivity. See MSDS section 5 - Fire fighting measures. Protection against fire and explosion: See MSDS section 5 - Fire fighting measures. Storage General advice: Containers should be stored tightly sealed in a dry place. Protect from air. Avoid extreme heat. Keep away from sources of ignition - No smoking. Storage incompatibility: General: Segregate from acids and acid forming substances. Storage stability: Storage duration: 24 Months 8. Exposure controls and personal protection Advice on system design: Provide local exhaust ventilation to control vapours/mists. Personal protective equipment Respiratory protection: Wear a NIOSH-certified (or equivalent) organic vapour/particulate respirator. Do not exceed the maximum use concentration for the respirator facepiece/cartridge combination. For emergency or non-routine, high exposure situations, use a NIOSH-certified full facepiece pressure demand self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) or a full facepiece pressure demand supplied-air respirator (SAR) with escape provisions. Hand protection: Chemical resistant protective gloves Eye protection: Tightly fitting safety goggles (chemical goggles). Wear face shield if splashing hazard exists. Body protection: Body protection must be chosen depending on activity and possible exposure, e.g. head protection, apron, protective boots, chemical-protection suit. General safety and hygiene measures: Eye wash fountains and safety showers must be easily accessible. Wear protective clothing as necessary to prevent contact.

Physical and chemical properties Form: liquid Odour: amine-like Colour: colourless to yellow Melting point: -10 C Boiling point: 187 C Vapour pressure: 0.4 mbar ( 20 C) Density: 0.94 g/cm3 ( 20 C) Solubility in water: ( 20 C) partly soluble Solubility (qualitative): soluble solvent(s): organic solvents, 10. Stability and reactivity Substances to avoid: acids Hazardous reactions: The product is chemically stable. Corrosion to metals: No data available. 11. Toxicological information Acute toxicity Oral: LD50/rat: 950 mg/kg Moderately toxic. LD50/rat: 950 mg/kg Literature data. Inhalation: rat: / 8 h(irt) Literature data. Inhalation-risk test (IRT): No mortality within 8 hours as shown in animal studies. The inhalation of a highly saturated vapor-air mixture represents no acute hazard. Dermal: LD50/rabbit: 730 mg/kg Literature data.

5 Revision date : 2006/01/04 Page: 5/7 Skin irritation: rabbit: Corrosive. Literature data. Eye irritation : rabbit: Corrosive. As the product corrodes the skin, it can be expected to have a similar effect on the eyes also. Literature data. Other information: No experimental evidence available for genotoxicity in vitro (Ames test negative). 12. Ecological information Environmental fate and transport Biodegradation: Test method: OECD 301 A (new version) Method of analysis: DOC reduction Degree of elimination: % (28 d) Evaluation: Readily biodegradable (according to OECD criteria). Adsorbable organically-bound halogen (AOX): This product contains no organically-bound halogen. Environmental toxicity Acute and prolonged toxicity to fish: Fathead minnow/lc50 (96 h): 17 mg/l The product has not been tested. The statement has been derived from products of a similar structure and composition. Literature data. Acute toxicity to aquatic invertebrates: Daphnia magna/ec50 (48 h): 23.3 mg/l Other ecotoxicological advice: Due to the ph-value of the product, neutralization is generally required before discharging sewage into treatment plants. The inhibition of the degradation activity of activated sludge is not anticipated when introduced to biological treatment plants in appropriate low concentrations. Do not release untreated into natural waters.
